CEnet Annual Report 2012 /// 2-3
CEnet - Catholic Education Network
CONNECTING CATHOLIC COMMUNITIES
CEnet is a not-for-profit company which exists to support the needs of Catholic school communities.
CEnet currently provides services to over 330,000 staff and students across Catholic
education networks from metropolitan and regional New South Wales, Queensland and
the Australian Capital Territory.
CEnet’s Member Dioceses share a common vision for a network and learning architecture
suitable for the support of education in the digital age and have put their combined
resources behind the development of centralised, managed services to deliver this
architecture.
CEnet aims to connect and support Catholic schools as they integrate information
and communication technologies (ICT) in the provision of contemporary learning and
teaching. This is achieved by the procurement and management of an affordable, robust, scalable, standards-based ICT network; delivering tools and resources to Catholic schools in a connected learning environment; and encouraging collaboration on the future delivery of applications to support learning and teaching and school/diocesan administration.

HSC Masterclasses by Video Conference
The CEO Sydney took advantage of access to High Definition video conferencing facilities to run a series of Masterclasses in English, Maths and Science, for
students aspiring to achieve Band 6 in the 2012 HSC.
The 2012 HSC Masterclass Video Conference Sessions were organised as a joint initiative of the CEO Secondary Curriculum team and the Eileen O’Connor
Centre at Lewisham and involved presenters from both Sydney and NSW Universities as well as subject matter experts from within the organisation.
The initiative stemmed from the “One More Mark” Project, which was developed as a strategy for enhancing the academic potential of students studying for
the HSC in Catholic schools.
Students gave up their time to participate in these video conferenced Masterclasses from 3.30 to 4.30pm on Tuesday afternoons with one session attendance
including over 360 students from 28 different sites and a live audience at the Eileen O’Connor Centre in Lewisham.
Video conferencing in the Sydney Archdiocese grew steadily during the year, with over twenty, large scale, video conference sessions experienced in schools
in a three-week period prior to the HSC.
CEnet Annual Report 2012 /// 12-13
The CEO Sydney moved quickly to adopt Google Apps
as a set of tools to support innovative 21st Century
learning and teaching in schools.
To ensure a smooth introduction, CEO eLearning staff
developed a phased approach to implementation
with schools initially selected to participate in a pilot,
enabling refinement of plans prior to full release.
As part of the process, eLearning consultants
developed a resource they have called CloudShare,
which provides access to a broad range of information
designed to support school use of Google Apps.

VIDEO CONFERENCING
Video conferencing continued to be a popular tool in 2012 with ongoing growth in usage. The total number of
devices connected to the service increased by over 85% in the 2012 year. This is largely based on the number
of computer-based video conferencing systems almost tripling as more and more teachers and administrators
take advantage of the service.
The Video Conferencing service is enabling teachers to explore activities which bring new “virtual excursion”
experiences such as visits to the NASA Space Centre, Reef HQ, the Australian Museum and Taronga Park Zoo
into the classroom and is providing new opportunities for staff to engage in professional activities without the
need to travel.
